I've always felt that perhap's there should be an "inbetween" versio…. a
1500, for example. Basically the same as a 2000 with no AT slots, and perhaps
only 3 zorro slots. Keep the cpu copocessor slot, perhap's a smaller power
supply. If this were to happen, perhap's I could see a "cheap" 500.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all in favor of cost reducing the 500, but no the point
of making a "cheap" 500. The Amiga already has a perception problem, and I
would hate to see this be compounded by a machine which is cheaply made.
Another part of the problem is, the peripherals for the 500 could stand a
little cost reduction as well….-Rick
